American comedian, Kelvin Hart has said he tested positive for the deadly coronavirus earlier this year and decided to keep the piece of information to himself because of a celeb who is more influential than him also tested positive at that time.

According to PageSix, the Comedian made this known during his performance at Dave Chappelle’s An Intimate Socially Distanced Affair show in Yellow Springs, Ohio.

“The problem is that I had it around the same time as Tom Hanks, and I couldn’t say anything because he’s more famous than I am,” he said.

Hart therefore joins the list of high profile individuals in the entertainment world who have tested positive for the dreaded virus. While in Nigeria, some celebrities have also tested positive for the virus.
